The User Points provide the ability for members to gain points when they perform certain actions on the site. It is similar to the old forum post count system, except it now incorporates the whole site.
Points can be gained by adding content to practically every section of the site, with some areas receiving higher points than others. Points will be deducted is a post or comment is deleted. At the moment, the points do not gain a member anything except point status, but eventually we will be bringing back the usergroups.
Points are distributed as follows:
Points for posting a forum topic: 1
Points for adding a book review (NOT a comment on a review already up): 2
Points for adding a download: 2
Points for posting a link in the links directory: 1
Points for adding a rat page: 1
Points for adding a movie review (NOT a comment on a review already up): 2
Points for adding a product peview (NOT a comment on a review already up): 2
Points for posting a comment anywhere on the site: 1
NOTE
If it is felt that a member is posting JUST to gain points, there points will be reset and they will have to start again.
